“This is a 30fps generation — even on PS5 Pro.” Digital Foundry weighs in on Alan Wake 2 on Sony’s new console
Translated with AI from the Russian original.
A few days ago, Remedy revealed what visual treats await players in Alan Wake 2 on PS5 Pro. Digital Foundry editors analyzed the topic.
Along with a 60 fps mode, Alan Wake 2 on PS5 Pro will have a 30fps option available. In this mode, the game indeed runs at 30 fps on Sony’s new console, but with full ray tracing, something that won't be on PS5 even in quality mode.
A Digital Foundry editor states:
“The PC version is still king if you have a powerful enough PC (...) It would be great if we got a 40fps mode on PS5 Pro, but that is the reality of the situation right now. I don't think the split between quality and performance modes will be going away in new games. (...) I think we will see more games, including on PS5 Pro, with a 30fps option.”
Overall, it can be said that in the video the editor cools expectations regarding PS5 Pro, emphasizing that 30fps modes are here to stay. Almost certainly, this is due to ray tracing, which is still too demanding.
